🔍 Key Concepts

• Induction motor slip and how it changes when load is added or removed • Relationship between slip, rotor speed, and stator rotating magnetic field • How current draw and magnetic field strength in a squirrel‑cage motor respond to load and slip

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to the rotor speed compared to synchronous speed when you put more mechanical load on the motor shaft. • Consider whether more slip makes the rotor cut more or fewer magnetic field lines, and what that does to rotor current and torque. • Ask yourself: if the rotor slows down slightly under load, does that usually cause current and flux to increase or decrease so the motor can produce more torque?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the definition of slip: the difference between synchronous speed and rotor speed, expressed as a percentage of synchronous speed. • Verify which way slip changes (increases or decreases) when load is added to the motor. • Check whether increased slip tends to increase or decrease both rotor current and the developed torque in a basic squirrel‑cage motor.

Question 1 of 20

Which of the following statements is true concerning the operating characteristics of a basic squirrel-cage induction motor?

Rotor slip is dependent upon the motor load.

An increase in motor load results in less slip.

A decrease in rotor speed results in less current draw.

A decrease in rotor speed produces a weaker magnetic field.
